Questions? Comments? Come join the Interim Leadership Team every Thursday morning during September starting September 9th for Coffee on the Quad! Coffee on the Quad is an informal opportunity for the community to gather and get to know our school leaders better. Coleen and Vanya will be under the tent on our quad from 8 AM to 9 AM on Thursdays throughout the month and can’t wait to share a cup of joe or baked good with you!

New Campus Rental Page

We are delighted to be opening our campus to the greater community to rent for private events. There are so many creative ways to utilize the grounds for a variety of events. All of the details and information are living on our newly designed Campus Rental page.

Our hope is that this will be an additional source of revenue for the school while expanding our connection to additional families in the surrounding community. Please feel free to share our rental page online and with your friends who might be planning a family reunion, rustic wedding, or outdoor kid’s birthday party, and more — WaldorfMoraine.org/Rent.
